Study for sculpture 'Empty and full abstracts of a head' 1912

"Study for sculpture 'Empty and full abstracts of a head'" is a 1912 charcoal drawing by Umberto Boccioni, a leading figure in the Futurist movement. The artwork is a preliminary sketch for a sculpture, and exemplifies Boccioni's interest in capturing the dynamism and movement of the human form through fragmented and geometric shapes. The sketch's angular lines and rough outlines contribute to a sense of energy and dynamism, characteristic of Futurism.
